NBR: elliptical

My DH and I bought an elliptical off of HSN back in January.  I have yet to use it....yes, I know...this is very embarassing.  But the stupid thing wobbles like crazy and HSN wont take it back after 30 days.  We have tried several different equipment mats and none of them have helped.  I really want to buy the 30 Day Shred but I know my DH will flip a lid if I buy this dvd because I have the elliptical that I dont use.  If you have an elliptical how do you keep it from wobbling during the workout?  TIA!

    No offense but this is why I won't buy anything off that tv show that and the fact that my MIL is addicted to it. Even with the discount that I get I won't do it.

    I know, I know.  I hate that my DH and I are both impulsive!!!

    Sorry. Just sounds like you have a cheap machine.  Ellipticals typically need to be pretty big and stable, and the stride length should be pretty long (and the cheap ones have very short stride lengths). 

     Does it help if you put extra padding under one of the feet and not the others? That's the only thing I can think of.

    You might be able to get full price (or close to it) by selling it on craigslist, then use the $ to buy 30-day shred. (can you get 30-day shred from the library, though? That might be better.)

    If you have Comcast cable the 30 day shred is on there in the On Demand section under fitness for free. You could try it out before you buy it. Or see if you can get it on Craigs list.
